Biggest Praying Mantis Ever!

Megamantis
Megamantis

This is by far the largest praying mantis I have ever seen in my yard - about 5 inches long! She was hiding in the cannas, no doubt feasting on lots of obnoxious bugs. One of the nice things about praying mantids is that they will stay put while you run to get the camera and bring everyone in the family out to look.
